Microeconomics. A fresh start
Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics

Get ready to change the way you think about economics.

Nobel laureate Richard H. Thaler has spent his career studying the radical notion that the central agents in the economy are humans--predictable, error-prone individuals. Misbehaving is his arresting, frequently hilarious account of the struggle to bring an academic discipline back down to earth--and change the way we think about economics, ourselves, and our world.

Viele Bereiche der Gesellschaft, die früher eigenen Regeln gefolgt sind, haben sich einer wirtschaftlichen Effizienzlogik unterworfen. Die Ökonomik hat damit den Status einer gesellschaftlichen Leitwissenschaft errungen. Das vorliegende Buch beschreibt und kritisiert die Transformation der Ökonomik in eine Wissenschaft von „dem Markt“ (in der Einzahl).

Towards an Integrated Paradigm in Heterodox Economics
This blog post reviews "Democratizing Finance", an edited volume that analyses and provides policy proposals to ensure that the financial system serves the public good. Mquzama undertakes the task of summarising the main takeaways from each essay in the book as well as an exposition of its shortfalls. While he acknowledges the necessity of the book's reimaging capitalism and the financial system in a way that is practical within the current economic and political structures, he also highlights its failure to look beyond the United States of America.

Book Review: Democratizing Finance
In this book the author develops a new approach to uncertainty in economics, which calls for a fundamental change in the methodology of economics. It provides a comprehensive overview and critical appraisal of the economic theory of uncertainty and shows that uncertainty was originally conceptualized both as an epistemic and an ontological problem.

Teaching Pluralism in Economics
This book provides a new methodological approach to money and macroeconomics. Realizing that the abstract equilibrium models lacked descriptions of fundamental issues of a modern monetary economy, the focus of this book lies on the (stylized) balance sheets of the main actors. Money, after all, is born on the balance sheets of the central bank or commercial bank.

Heilbroner provides a new theme that connects thinkers as diverse as Adam Smith and Karl Marx.
